Satay (sate) originated in Java, Indonesia. Satay is available almost anywhere in Indonesia, where it has become a national dish. It is also popular in many other Southeast Asian countries, such as: Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Thailand, and the southern Philippines, and also in the Netherlands, as Indonesia is a former Dutch colony.
Satay is a very popular delicacy in Indonesia; Indonesia's diverse ethnic groups' culinary arts (see Indonesian cuisine) have produced a wide variety of satay. In Indonesia, satay can be obtained from a travelling satay vendor, from a street-side tent-restaurant, in an upper-class restaurant, or during traditional celebration feasts. In Malaysia, satay is a popular dish—especially during celebrations—and can be found throughout the country.
Besides this lamb satay, you can see my other post, Chicken satay with peanut sauce- here and here. You can use that peanut sauce for this recipe too.
± 2 kg Lamb /mutton (mixed with fat). Cut into bite-size

Ingredients B (for marinate during grilling):

ReplyDelete@healthyfoodietravels you're welcome dear..
ReplyDelete@lena Hi Lena, you are right.. there's no Satay here or Indonesian or even close to Asian food in my town, so everything I must make by my self anything I crave ^,^
ReplyDeleteHi I love Satay. When I was a small child I lived in Singapore and there were men who would ride bicycles and cook the satay on the back of those. My parents would buy them. I can still remember the taste now some 30 odd years later. Do you know what the Singaporeans marinate the meat in? I would be very happy to be able to recreate the same taste.
ReplyDeleteOMG, Citra-you never cease to amaze me with your incredible foods, and most amazing desserts. This satay is so, so delicious, and looks oh, so pretty, I could easily chow down the entire tray and not share...Yumm!
ReplyDeleteLuckily you're so talented in making all your favorite foods when there's so few Asian ones where you are. These look wonderful, Citra. Lamb is such a great flavorful meat by itself, I can just imagine how fragrant this would be.
